Max Payne 2 - Its Max Payne......WITH HAVOK(r) PHYSICS!!!!!!
Its amazing how much cooler the game is with them, even thought the developers like to show us at every possible opportunity. I also appreciate the gratuitous harsh language that has crept into the game.
Damned good fun.
At which I shall point to the advice given a couple weeks ago saying "It's excellent if you like the 1st game, otherwise you'll not find anything good in it"

So they all run at PC2100 speeds due to that being the lowest memory speed.

Yeah you should. Got nearly the same with a XP2800 Barton, 1Gb DDR333 and a 9800 Pro 128mb.
512mb mem (can't remember clock speed but it's not the slow stuff)
ATI Radeon 9800 with 128mb
forget what soundcard it is !
Anyway it came this morning (hows that for service?) and it's well worth the money, runs at full tilt with no flaws. Excellent game.

Yeah its good. What spec PC do you have?
